Blaming, shaming Gloriavale girls the norm, court told

From Checkpoint, 5:21 pm on 30 August 2022

A court has been told victim blaming and shaming was standard at Gloriavale, where girls caught in inappropriate relationships with married men were called 'whores'.

Six former Gloriavale women want the Employment Court to rule they were employees, not volunteers, during their time at the West Coast community.
